toast with avocado and goat cheese

EN, Various Stuff

I know that avocado is a fashionable fruit, but I don’t like it very much. But, in this combination, it is delicious. I don’t know, maybe because of the goat cheese or the olive oil. I’ve hardly decided to try it, but I don’t regret now. I like this recipe very much and I think it is a good idea for a healthy, tasteful and nourishing breakfast. Breakfast for those who like good food. It includes everything you need for having energy all day long, a day that starts with something tasty and delicious :). Toast with avocado and goat cheese! A portion has about 300 calories, protein sufficient for long time fullness, 2 sources of good fat (avocado and olive oil) and….taste of course! Toast with avocado and goat cheese Category: Breakfast Specific: Vegetarian Portions: 1 INGREDIENTS 2 slices of toasted bread 1/2 piece of avocado crushed with fork 100 g goat cheese 1 teaspoon olive oil

March the 1st and the tradition of mărţişor

EN, Things I Like, Various Stuff

I’m not used to sending this kind of messages, I find them childish. But today it‘s March the 1st and I make an exception. I send you a funny message for the first day of this spring. Besides, here, in UK, I don’t find any mărţişor and the only way of wishing you a beautiful and happy spring is this message. In UK the weather is not so good these days, it’s raining and the wind is blowing, it’s a perfect moment for things that characterizes me less, but makes me smile anytime I read them 🙂 I’ve found out on the internet a few interesting things about mărţişor. For example, it is an over 8000 years old Romanian tradition, the first things found were some amulets (red and white pebbles arranged alternatively in a string) worn at the neck. I read also “the legends of mărţişor. One day, the

The song of the potatoes or the anthem of the potatoes

EN, Things I Like, Various Stuff

No one can deny the influence of the potatoes on our life and diet 🙂 We all love potatoes no matter how they are cooked: fried French fries – the most known and loved potatoes, boiled and mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, oven roasted potatoes. There are hundreds of recipes with potatoes. The rustic potatoes and au gratin potatoes are very tasteful. There are many potato recipes with vegetables. The moussaka is appreciated very much. The list is long, you can write comments at this article sending me recipes with potatoes. In the UK, there is another loved recipe: Jacket Potato: baked potato filled with cheese, baked beans, tuna and mayonnaise, chilli con carne and many others, depending on your taste. People like baked tornado potato, mashed potatoes-on-a-stick, chips, those delicious chips, unhealthy but eaten by most of the people. Children love potatoes, especially the fried ones. This is reality –

any kind of signs

Pay attention to signs!

EN, Various Stuff

Yes, pay attention to any kind of signs! Starting with the punctuation marks that could make a big difference between what you want to say and what the others understand, then the nature signs, or subconscious signs and so on; then we can talk about other signs, those that are or not sent to you. Haven’t you ever been in a situation when you thought someone was coming to you but in fact you weren’t the target person? 🙂 Or haven’t you ever thought someone was making a sign to you (hello from head or hand) and you answered to that sign in any kind, although you weren’t the target person? 🙂 But if we are thinking of men and their imagination, when they are seeing a woman, a very beautiful and attractive woman, and it seems she is making signs, any kind of signs, their imagination immediately starts heating

don’t stay in school

EN, Things I Like, Various Stuff

Although at first glance the message seems to be: “don’t stay in school anymore”, if you try to listen and understand the lyrics, you realize that the message differs, it is about school and what pupils learn, many things taught in school are useless, cannot be used in real life, day by day. And the guy, Dave- Boyinaband, seems to me a brilliant person. And he attended school. You will find here the song, a few parents’ comments, and his comments regarding the others opinion about his song. You can see also his studies. I know it takes time and probably you don’t have, but sincerely it deserves your attention. If not today, maybe you can return at this article tomorrow. I have wanted to post more but you can find by yourself all the articles regarding this song and, in order to understand it, you should listen and read

super advert

EN, Things I Like, Various Stuff

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such an inspired advert. It is super, from what goes and what gets 🙂  (you will see below) I have motorcycle licence I have motorcycle licence, but I’ve been always afraid to use the motorcycle in Bucharest where the traffic is a mess. I used to ride my motorcycle only in weekends when there were fewer cars on the streets. And I was at two rock concerts with my motorcycle only for fun 🙂 The adrenaline was released by my fear of accidents not by the feeling of freedom. And another problem is given by the roads, the bumps, any sudden maneuver could be fatal. I am not a coward person, but my survival instinct and the fact that I am mum and I have a child made me to say stop it; it took me two years to give up for

A few interesting things about Saint Nicholas

EN, Things I Like, Various Stuff

It’s been a long time since my childhood has past but I still feel that feeling of joy and fun before Christmas. I like the Christmas decorations and the Christmas tree is  present in my house every year, each corner of my house is decorated.  I like buying gifts for my family and friends, thinking of everyone wishes. I like packing them nicely and I put all of them under the tree. And it would be even nicer if it would snow on Christmas eve 🙂 It is said that: Winter really begins on Saint Nicholas Day. This character comes on a white horse, the symbol of the snow in December, and when he comes he shakes off his beard and if it doesn’t snow on 6th of December, it’s said that the Saint has rejuvenated. Saint Nicholas brings secret gifts for children, the tradition is to hang up socks

open letter to Facebook

EN, Things I Don't Like, Things I Like, Various Stuff

Mr. Facebook, you celebrate 2 billion users, but I am completely unsatisfied by the buttons/ emoticons available in the bottom bar. I am talking about like, love, haha, wow, sad, angry buttons. If you do something do it well. How could I manage with only 5 emoticons? I have more feelings and I can’t express them using only 5 emoticons. I think it would be better to have only like button, I use it when I like something and I don’t use it when I don’t like it. It would be easier. I know there are many lists of emoticons but every time I need one I waste time looking for it and I am bound to post it as a comment. In the same time I have to choose one of those 5 emoticons in order to appreciate that post in any way. Mr. Facebook, my intention is to

thank you!

I can’t believe it, you are more than a few friends of mine who know about this blog and read it, some people are curious, others for my pleasure, others for their pleasure. I haven’t thought that what I write here is so interesting for you. I have started the blog because of a huge frustration; I could not scream what had happened to me and because screaming was impossible, I started to write my thoughts. The truth is that writing is my strength, my essays in school were appreciated by the teachers and I wanted to follow the philology courses but it was hard for me to stay and deepen the knowledge, I am active and logic. And I have thought it is time to follow my pleasure of writing. I don’t know if I do it well or not, the truth is that I like it and I

Answer for a frustrated medical resident

EN, Things I Don't Like, Various Stuff

I’ve decided to write this article after I read a “complaint” published by AK – 24 and written by a medical resident: “A doctor’s angry message – What means when you give 5 RON to a hairdresser after a haircut – this is not a tip? The young residents’ dramatic stories”. You can find the article here. Humiliations A young doctor says that she hasn’t heard before starting medicine that the doctors are humiliated and their salaries are low. So, young doctor, I will tell you exactly how things are going: first of all, I don’t care your salary, it’s your choice to be a doctor and you have to practice medicine conscientiously or you have to give up this job and start another one paid better. Then, you have to take care of patients no matter your salary, you have taken the Hippocratic’ oath and I don’t think this
